Abstract:
During the period 165072, the Dutch Republic was without a stadtholder prince of Orange. This article examines the rhetoric of the supporters of the House of Orange throughout these years in relation to the common people of the Republic. Within this context, it investigates the arguments that Orangists used to justify the restoration of the stadtholderate, and examines how, at critical times, direct action by the commonalty was incited and justified. The article draws on the printed pamphlets of the period as well as on drama, poetry and visual imagery.Document Type: Research article
